Pigtailed Optical Sub Assembly (OSA)
- Technology
- Digital fibre optic components
- Partner
- Coretek
Pigtailed OSA components provide many advantages over receptacle or barrel type by enabling flexibility of installation location on PCB to improve electrical performance characteristics or allow use of special connectors in harsh environments.
By combining the optical components with selected fibre types, it is possible to create custom devices for many non-datacom applications. Use of Single Mode (SM) Corning ZBL, high-bandwidth Multi-Mode (MM), or OFS specialty fibres, as just a few examples, opens up many possibilities to simplify the overall system design by eliminating the use of extra patch cords and adapters.
With 20+ years of experience in the field of manufacturing optical components, Coretek Opto, is your partner of choice in pigtailed OSAs.
